He Will Deserve it all.
Atchison Globe .

l awoke one night, when the
pale moonlight, was streaming
upon my floor, and an angel stood
in the silver food that streamed
through the open door. And the
light chat poured from the flaming
sword, I never had seen before;
and 1 cried in fear: "Is an angel
here, to take me to lions shore?"
And the angel sighed, as it soft
replied: 20 mortal l weep for thee;
twere better to float, in an open
boat, on the breast of a raging sea,
than to lie and sleep, but to wake
and weep, with hope in thy bosom
gone, for thy name I'll move,
from thy books above, when I'll
leave the alone at dawn" "Say
what have I done, o Shadowy one,
that I ne'er may reach the sky?"
And my spirit cried, as the shade
replied "Thy doom is to droop
and die. I have heard thee say, as
thou went thy way, when the
weather was warm and rough,
while thou wore a smile, that was
filed with guile: We'll say is this
hot enough?" Thou shalt roam in
tears, through the rolling years,
and never a rest shalt know; and
thy path is laid, where the pleas
ant shade, can never assuage thy
woe. And the sun shall burn, till
thou weep and yearn, to sink
on thy pathway rough. and voices
shall sound, from the country
round: We'll say, is this hot
enough%

MIA AOUOo1 y,
The year 1867 has been a
bad one for "boodlers."
1t is to be regretted that we
have no political campaign this
summer. 1t would require go lit
tie effort to make it hot one.
Time was when poets, only,
raved about the golden sunlight,
but If this weather continues
much longer everybody will be
raYing.
The CLAIM murder trial has
cost Shelby county twenty thou
sand dollars, and resulted in q
hung jury.
-McGarigle, the great Doodle
artist of Chicago has arrived in
Canada. He reached British soil
ten minutes ahead of his pursu-
ers.
The protection sentiment is
daily growing stronger in the
south, and the party which advo-
Gates the protection of home in-
dustries will receive the support
of the labor vote in the next ma
tional campaign.
The expenses of the second
year of Cleveland's administra-
ton exceed those of the second
year of Arthur's administration
nearly seventeen millions of dol
lars. Reform comes high but it
helps to get rid of the surplus.
The hot weather has pro-
duced an egg famine in New York,
more than half the eggs shipped
to that city being hatebed on the
road, and in many instances en-
tire lots are total loss. A simi-
lar state has not existed for fifteen
years.
1t is stated that the Atchi-
son, Topeka and Santa Fe Compa-
ny has partially stopped its extern
sive construction work in the west,
especially in Kansas, it being
thought that it will not be a good
crop year.
Wheat was lower In Chicago
last month than it had been fol
thirty years. Thirty years age

now, only there was not SO mucf

His Old Mother.
Atlantic Constitution

He was about to die for cold
blooded murder. Standing be-
meath the gallows he made short
talk. He spoke of his impending
death with slight emotion. Then
of "his people, with some signs
of tears. Then of his wife with
sobs and trembling voice. Then of
"his old mother"-and there he
broke down completely and gave
way to uncomfortable grief.
All yes! 1t is right there that we
all break down. At the thought
of "the old mother" with her
graying hairs, her kindly face,
across which time and sorrow are
cutting their burrows, and her
faith and her affection that never
wavers or doubts. 1t is to "the old
mother" that mans heart turns at
last when trouble or affiiction or
remorse overtakes him. Other
loves may be stronger, and the
passion of other loves may obscure
this for a time. The wife cling
ing in absorbed happiness to the
arm, or little ones, clambering
fcnd and trustful about the knee,
may effaee all thought of "the old
mother But when great crisis
comes, and when the strong man
is bending beneath a burden too
grevious to be borne, the vision
comes to him of one, idealized in
his heart, who never doubted, who
never wearied, but who loved all
the time with a love that passeth
understanding. The wife, wonder
ing at this at first, accepts it at
last quietly acquiescing, but hap
py in her mothers heart to know
that from her own children in the
days to come this same miracle
shall be rendered unto her.

reference to the late episode at Mitch
ellstown, Ireland Hon. Patrick Egan
occupied the chair:
WHEREAS, In the exercise of the right
OF public meeting, guaranteed by the
BRITISH constitution, the Irish people of
MltchellstOwn and its vicinity were as.
sembled together for the discussion of a
political question, and were then and
there fired on by murderous and drunk
en- police; and,
WHEREAS, Chief Secretary Balfour
has assumed the responsibility for the
said murders, by stating that the police
were acting In conformity with their
duty and the orders issued to them.
Resolved, That we as members of the
scattered Irish race feel that a bloody
outrage has been committed upon us as
well as upon our brethren in Ireland, in
defiance of divine and human Justice,
and while we unite with our kindred in
rendering our sympathy to the relatives
OF the murdered men and in denouncing
the murderers, we maintain thas it is
the stern duty of the Irish nation to
rilg1dly and impartially investigate the
circumstances surrounding the murder
and to see that justice shall be meted
out to whoever is morally or actually
guilty of this foul crime.
The resolution was moved by Mr.. J.
j. Butler, brother-in-law of Edward
